Indeed, they've been studying this question for years. Why would Germany buy a plane the U.S. is too afraid to use against Russia? I agree with you about everything except Western involvement would lead to nuclear war. Anyway, if I'm German I'd be like, "Wait, the U.S. butt its head in European business, pushed Putin into an invasion, and now we're supposed to reward them by buying their shit?"

Unbelievable!!!
